How to Install PANZ ONE Cabinet Accessories

Installation guide for various PANZ ONE cabinet accessories including fan kits, bend radius posts, horizontal slack managers, and mounting rails.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Drill (if needed for mounting holes)

Supplies needed:

#10-32 screws and lockwashers, #12-24 x 2.5" screws, #12-24 x 1.5" screws, #12-24 x 1/2" screws

  1. Install Fan Kit

    Mount the PZBR4 Fan Kit using (4) #10-32 screws and lockwashers. If only one fan kit is used, install the provided blank on the opposite wall using (4) #10-32 screws and lockwashers. For switches exceeding 120 watts, install a second fan kit. If switches have side air intake and opposite side exhaust, install one fan without the blank.

  2. Install Bend Radius Posts

    Install bend radius posts at any rack location using the provided #12-24 x 2.5" screw (or #12-24 x 1.5" for PZBR3). Tabs on the post can be removed for customization. Posts may be installed over active equipment mounting locations.

  3. Install Horizontal Slack Manager

    Mount the PZBR4 Horizontal Slack Manager tray using (4) #12-24 x 1/2" screws at the desired rack unit (RU). Refer to the recommended layout for optimal mounting locations.

  4. Install Mounting Rail

    Attach the PZBR4 Mounting Rail using (4) #12-24 screws at the desired location.

  5. Route Cables

    Route patch cord slack around the furthest spool of the horizontal slack manager. Avoid crossing the center line of the slack manager with cable slack. Route patch cords going to the top horizontal slack manager towards the outside of the cabinet to avoid crossovers with cords going to a lower slack manager.
